yea im not sure how to explain it either.  like, i think in words, but it doesn't have a voice..

Yeah, that's a good description for mine, too.  I think more like I'm reading words from a page, than actually talking.  I have whole paragraphs in my mind of things I've thought about, but there really isn't a voice there.

Everyone always said I was a really good author.  That's probably why.  It's easy for me to come up with the words I want to use in a story or poem, because I've already written tens of thousands of pages in my own mind from thinking about my own life.

I don't have a voice. It's silent. I mean it's like I hear a voice talking.. but there is no actual 'sound' to it.. I just 'hear' myself talking.
I'm not thinking in concepts of visual words.. it's just like hearing without hearing.

precisely! 

I've always thought with a rather low voice. My speaking voice is low for a girl and usually comes out monotonous sounding, which helps me sound like a guy. So that's cool. Unfortunately when I am excited about something it becomes much more feminine. A lot of the time when I am thinking, I talk to myself out loud, and I generally end up sounding like a younger version of the male voice in my head. Which I think is pretty cool, too. I really hope that T will actualize my thought-voice, when I take it.

I think it's really interesting how some people don't really think in words. As for me, I usually switch around depending on the task that my mind is currently dealing with. If it does not involve speech or any very wordy concepts, I tend to utilize images with small snippets of words. And when I am thinking of different 'philosophies' or concepts of life, or when I am brainstorming ideas in general, I usually end up speed-thinking and unable to correctly remember the ideas later because I didn't think with enough words. What a bummer!
